Beautiful Lucy, Clayton and Maia make up the Hiku Family. A musicianly gifted family full of funny, happy, bouncy beans. And the odd naughty word here and there like, Poooooo!

We met in a magical forest for some sweet family time to capture their incredible fun-loving bond! They ooze love, imagination, creativity, affection and heart pounding joy for each other and their strong, beautiful and hilarious daughter Maia, totally keeps them on their toes!! hehe

Lucy is one of the faces behind Christchurch childrens music duo Itty Bitty Beats (Any parent reading this, go check em out! I’m not sure if I buy the music for Isaac, or for meeeee! hehe) You’ll be singing “Four fluffy clouds” in no time!! ;-) …

Thanks for the amaaazing morning together guys, what a blissful time capturing such joyful rays of sunshine!! …

Maia is such a cheeky monkey, full of the brightest sparkliest beans. And boy is she adored by her whanau!

Word of the Day… Pooooooooo! Hehe Love me a bit of toilet humour lol.

Looking for the birdies…. nek minit…

POOOOOOOOOO!

Maia loves her Daddy so much, it brings me the greatest joy seeing such love between any two people, no matter who they are! And these two make my heart go BOOM!

I’m just going to go right ahead and assume she’s praying to the Marshmallow God’s for it to rain down sweet goodness on them! …. Or maybe that’s just my dream hehe.

Then there is the relationship between Mama and Tamaiti. Oh delicious, wonderful goodness! <3

Hongi bliss! <3

She’s an explorer, she seeks out adventure… the world is her oyster! Oh she is going to find greatness! <3

I love turning the attention to Mum and Dad too. Without them, their is no family. Clay and Lucy have such a special bond. You can just tell, they are each others greatest friend. And through this, anything is possible!!!
